From 400c5514676e352f2d95ab29ccae2c44cecf019b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Bentley Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2026 12:10:49 +1300 Subject: [PATCH 01/14] Add a calendar for open community calls. We're going to try using Jitsi since it seemed to offer the best combination of features: * no time limit * ability to record meetings + publish on youtube. The `.ics` file is hand-crafted, but validated using https://icalendar.org/validator.html and also checked in Google calendar. Using the `webcal:` pseudo-protocol for the link on the page should mean the browser passes the URL to the calendar app to be subscribed-to there. That should cause the calendar app to regularly poll for updates, in case we decide to cancel/reschedule meetings. I thought that was preferable to the user downloading a `.ics` and importing and then us making changes to the schedule making the imported event series stale. Putting these two together means we should have the liberty to cancel (using `EXDATE:`) and reschedule events if we need to. Note that I've already excluded New Years Eve 2026 using `EXDATE:`.
